Indierights and Urban Tales Productions are pleased to announce the exclusive world theatrical premiere of 9 FULL MOONS, a quintessential modern-day Los Angeles love story and an edgy, dark romance on Friday, November 7, 2014 at 8:10PM.

Starring Amy Seimetz and Bret Roberts and co-starring Donal Logue, Dale Dickey, and Harry Dean Stanton, the brooding ode to love and Los Angeles will have an exclusive red carpet premiere at Arena Cinema Hollywood, 1625 N. Las Palmas Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90028. There will be a red carpet that opens at 7:20PM, preshow mixer and a Q&A with post-show party following the premiere with cast and crew.

9 FULL MOONS dives into the sun-baked landscape of Los Feliz, Silver Lake, Hollywood, East Los Angeles and Echo Park; into the country-tinged singer-songwriter music scene of East Los Angeles; as well as into the seemingly implausible relationship between Frankie (Seimetz) and Lev (Roberts), two radically different people who seem to be meant for each other. As the young couple struggle with their personal demons, they try to hold on to one another against insurmountable odds.

A near-miss moment of intimacy at an after-hours LA nightclub leads Frankie and Lev to embark on a frenzied and handicapped affair, but their free-spiritedness and non-conformist attitude toward social norms send them on a rollercoaster ride. Frankie is a wild and enigmatic train wreck with a candid outlook on life. Lev is a solitary, stoic young man with profound aspirations to become one of the legendary musical vagabonds he earnestly admires. In order to escape the downward spiral of their lives, and take a serious stab at having a future together, Frankie and Lev must force themselves to examine and come face-to-face with their painful histories, and to make peace.

“We’re thrilled to be presenting the world theatrical premiere of 9 FULL MOONS, an edgy, heartfelt and meaningful film that resonates powerfully among discerning audiences,” said the film’s US distributor, Linda Nelson of Indierights. “Indie filmmakers like Tomer and Gabrielle Almagor of Urban Tales Productions represent the future of the film industry and the commercial viability of the well-made, skillfully distributed indie film on a global scale. The future is upon us with films like 9 FULL MOONS.”

Like life itself, 9 FULL MOONS is filled with contradictions; through Frankie and Lev’s moments of anguish and glimpses of happiness, the film juxtaposes genuinely fresh and oddly romantic moments with scenes of bleak, raw, painful emotions and utter despair. It’s a compelling modern love story that ushers in the dawn of the 21st century.

“9 FULL MOONS is a love letter to my partner and to the city of angels we both love and hate,” said director Tomer Almagor. “Life imitates Art imitates Life, and bringing this intimate and personal story to the big screen, was a challenge. Watching our collaborators and audiences touched and healed by the rocky narrative has empowered our process, and we are looking forward to sharing this hopeful and triumphant story with more audiences around the globe.”

“About a minute into my initial conversation with Tomer Almagor I knew I wanted to be a part of the cast of 9 FULL MOONS,” said Donal Logue, who plays the role of the flawed, stubborn and reluctantly sympathetic country star Charlie King Nash, whose music Lev hopes to revitalize while at the same time making a name for himself. “Working on 9 FULL MOONS reminded me why I got in this profession in the first place.”

9 FULL MOONS made its international festival premiere at the 2013 Seattle International Film Festival, received a FIPRESCI nomination for best new film and played to sold-out audiences at Raindance,

“9 Full Moons has proven to be a film that touches people,” said the film’s producer Gabrielle Almagor. “Women from all over have approached me and thanked me for making this film; they have told me that they too had been in similar situations and felt very connected to the main character Frankie. The point is, love can heal anything, but this is not a cheesy tale of love conquering all, but rather a beautiful gentle documentation of the spark that ignites the beginning of a better path.”
